Talk about rarity in this world and tell me the definition of a Classical in Time. Tell Me More about  this painter that goes by the name of Jaime Rosa. And I will tell you that a young master that surely will Impress you in any moment now. I NEVER liked Baroque painting for me was an old, borring movement until I saw It. What do I mean by It???  It was  a one of the most Impressive painting I have ever seen in my life, which depicted a woman in a red dress which I called it “Mujer del Vestido  Rojo” A simple modern painting with an extremely old dark enviroment normally seen in  works by Peter Paul Rubens which are typical painting from the 16th Century. This Work is clearly depicting a sensual woman staring to the abyss of darkness in a precise but elegant way.

A brief description of his work would be simple and subtle maintaing the integrity in composition of light and darknes with a touch of a NeoBaroque style which can only be seen on his work. Fusing modern art with a touch of classical technique to a canvas which only and example of a contemporary reinterpretation of a modern item in a Diego Velazquez setting could  prove my point like this:

For me This fusion created by Jaime Rosa Is a fresh start and evidence that even the old style movements with a little twist ofm art can give rise to a Impressive array of work that can be appreciated by even the most untrained eye. Making this quality the most powerful weapon to its advantage

In my opinion there are lots of good artist in Puerto Rico but only one artist that I can recall can achive the grade of complexity of such caliber painting and that is why I consider Jaime Rosa one of the greatest new talents in Puerto Rico and one of the smartest investment in any modern Puerto Rican Art, Because is just a matter of time when we will see Rosa’s work hanging in every Puerto Rico Museum.
